The story revolves mainly around 3 girls who identical lives,but each walking towards different directions in life.This shows that having the same fate doesn't necessarily mean having the same luck.Past life,present life,fate and life cycle are the main themes in this drama series,implicating even more of the future of the characters in this story.
Since having 3 main characters,this story cannot lack the interactions and relationships between the characters.But when the audience is accustomed to obvious couples-to-be in most drama series,this story unexpectedly turns around during the peak of this drama,just like an unpredictable game of cards or a winding and complicated food-chain,bringing upon a complicated relationships between so many characters.Originally introduced as best friends,these 6 people gradually find themselves struggling among the webs of suspicions,betrayal and lies. And during these times,their friendships are highly at stake to crumble.
In harsh reality,what matters actually is the appearance.During the broadcast on television,it's a pity that even though it's a very good series,it did not receive good response.What's worse is the fact that some of the scenes in 5 episodes were editted out,resulting in many unrelated scenes.Hopefully the complete version will be released in the future!
This time,Michael yet again plays the role of a man who is very loyal to his unrequited love--Chen Yong Qing who strives hard for love.Overall,he is a honest,simple and kind man and also a filial son.He works hard to pursue his love,even if it will cost him his life.His commitment towards love in his heart never ceased.At the beginning,he is actually helping his father out in a their own flower orchard,living life at peace.But when a fortune teller tells Yong Qing that Mimi is his past life's bride,his family hires a matchmaker to ask for Mimi's hand in marriage.But the bride has unexpectedly excaped,making Yong Qing feeling very upset but not willing to give up.He follows her right up to Taipei,and finally gets into the same insurance company as Mimi.But after failing in a couple of assignments,he became the black sheep of the company for causing a loss of money for the company.
In order to protect his love,Mimi,Yong Qing doesn't mind even though he is being misunderstood by his own parents.The scene where he was being slapped by his angry father is truly heart-moving and pitiful!
Michael's role as Chen Yong Qing is a very delighful and cheerful character.Especially those scenes together with Miss Qian Zi Wei,everything becomes even more funny.If this drama series becomes a comedy series,it absolutely cannot lack the two of them!
Even though Chen Yong Qing's character is very lively and cheerful,he can also be the direct opposite when he's upset.When he's sad,he can cry and bawl loudly,and when he's angry,he can scold the others very fiercely.Michael's acting skills in this drama series can be given very high marks!
